The irresistible Australian Survivor • Eurogamer.net
[ad_1] I’d never watched Survivor before and it’s only now that I realise why: it didn’t do very well in the UK in the early noughties so it disappeared. That explains it. But while it flopped here, it soared elsewhere, and so it was, as a complete newbie to the series, I recently found myself…
